A rectangle has a length five more than twice the width. If the perimeter is 22 units find the width and length

Set the following: Length = L    Width = W

The length is twice the width:    L = 2*W     or:  W = L/2

Perimeter: P = 60ft = 2*L + 2*W

Substituting L for W in the perimeter equation gives:

P = 60ft = 2*L + 2*(L/2) = 2*L + L = 3L

L = 60ft/3 = 20ft    W=L/2=20ft/2=10ft

Verify result:  Perimeter= P = 60ft = 2L + 2W = 2*20ft +2*10ft = 40ft+20ft = 60ft

The area of the rectangular is: Area = A = Length*Width = L*W = 20ft*10ft = 200 (ft)^2

It’s a little surprising that this question didn’t come up earlier.  Unfortunately, there’s no intuitive way to understand why “the energy of the rest mass of an object is equal to the rest mass times the speed of light squared” (E=MC2).  A complete derivation/proof includes a fair chunk of math (in the second half of this post), a decent understanding of relativity, and (most important) experimental verification.

What is the value of the function<br> g(t) = 2(t-3)-4 for the input value t= 6?
balandron [24]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Replace t with 6:

g(t) = 2(t-3)-4 becomes g(6) = 2(6-3)-4 = 2(3) - 4 = 6 - 4 = 2

Please solve this by solving systems by elimination<br><br><br>6x+3y=-18<br><br>7x+7y=0
gavmur [86]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

6x + 3y = -18

Taking 3 common from left side

so, 3(2x+y) = -18

2x+y = -18/3

2x+y = -6 (equation 1)

and, 7x + 7y = 0

Taking 7 as commom from left side

7(x + y) = 0

x + y = 0/7

x + y = 0 (equation 2)

now , by using elimination method

subtracting equation2 from equation1

2x + y - (x + y)= -6 - 0

2x + y - x - y = -6

x = -6

so, x = -6

substituting value of x in equation 1

2(-6) + y = -6

-12 + y = -6

y = -6 +12

y = 6

hence, the value of x = -6

          and value of  y = 6
